| Description: |
This overview surveys the review process from inside and out. Within institutions, review is used for internal planning and budgeting. Externally, it is commonly employed by state agencies or system offices to monitor educational performance. Presented here is a detailed picture of the impact and results of academic program evaluation on the individuals most affected—namely, students, faculty, administrators, trustees, and state-level staff who are directly involved in evaluation of academic/occupational programs. Stemming from a 1979 survey that involved approximately one-third of the country’s postsecondary institutions, this analysis makes its presentation succinctly. Technical terminology is limited to key concepts and explanation is made by way of specific and apt example. This book covers the territory of program review with an uncommon command and clarity. |
